Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Frequently asked questions are prefixed with an "Q:" (question). Likely errors are prefixed with an "E:" (error) and describe the type of error, the specific error message has a deeper heading.


Installation

Q: "Should I install this software on a live / production server?"

A: "Not if it's on a server that already running and critical, but.."

There is no problem in installing it on a vanilla system, and using this setup for production.


E: Broken packages

Depends: openpanel-mod-postfixcourier but it is not going to be installed

When exim is installed it conflicts with postfix. So "apt-get remove exim" before installing.

Q: Why is postfix repeating 'No such file or directory'?

A: The openpanel-mod-postfixcourier postinst is broken

For every file that postfix complains about, touch a file named identically but without the .db extension; then postmap that file.

GUI

E: Connection refused

The server does not respond at port 4089

(Re)start the openpanel-ssl service

# /etc/init.d/openpanel-ssl start

E: 404 Not Found

Is open-gui installed?

Services

E: Login failed

login onto the imap/pop3/ftp/etc server failed

Perhaps contrary to what you're used to: accounts always have the extension "@domainname" attached to them. So if you add a user john to the domain foo.com it's login for the imap emailbox is "john@foo.com" the same applies for example for ftp-accounts.

E: No route to host / service

Make sure the appropriate ports are not blocked by for example a firewall
